1. Unsaid squad protocol? You mean don't shoot your teammates?
2. There's a blue indicator over your allies.
3. That's true I guess.
4. The game tells you how to crouch and crawl on the first mission I think, when you're on top of the train.
5. The first mission is basically a shooting gallery.
6. Somewhat common sense, but true.
7. Is that a big factor in the game? Most things in the game are indestructible.
8. What terms?
9. It marks all objectives to be destroyed with an orange indicator.
10. What equipment? Guns and grenades should be self-explanatory.1. This may not have been worded well, but many situations had me sitting around waiting for the next scripted sequence until I realized that I needed to be standing in the right position relative to my squad, or had me being in a good firing position only to find that one of my teammates moves into my line of fire.
2. I didn't have this problem MYSELF, but with how dark things are, how hard it is to see, etc. I can see this being a problem for introductory gamers.
3. Fair enough.
4. Crouch, yes. Prone, not as far as I remember. I didn't get any sort of real practice with it, though. It wasn't an option that I readily went to without having to really ponder it first. While it only took the space of 1/4 of a second, that was enough to get me killed.
5. True, but that's only teaching how to fire a single gun. Then you pick up another, and that's firing that one gun. You don't even know how to switch guns, and you aren't even taught that you can carry multiple guns. Seems like common sense, but if I don't know it going in, I don't know it until way later.
6. Fair enough.
7. That is true. I thought many things would be destructible based on past information I had on the Battlefield games, and learned the hard way that they weren't. That didn't take long, but then I started firing at a guy behind a thin metal sheet, and the sheet fell off, but the guy was unharmed throughout the entirety of my shooting at him. I hit where he would be behind the plate, but I never hit him. Then later, I started getting shot behind similar plates. I'd also been shot behind small barriers through the barriers. Inconsistent data.
8. In the jet, it never explains what the various missiles really ARE, nor what the planes really ARE. Sure, you don't NEED to know them, but it's really nice to know them. Also, PLR's. I didn't know what those were until I searched them up later.
9. It didn't mark the bunkers in the jet mission.
10. True enough, but I never got any practice with the specific grenade arc that my character throws with, and was left to guess when I needed to use one. Was also not taught how much bullet lag there is for leading targets, or how much bullet spread there was on guns. Also, in multiplayer, using my equipment required me to sit there and mash buttons until I found one that deployed a health kit.
